Happy Conception Day!
Two years ago today, thanks to the miracle of modern medicine and a lot of blood, sweat, tears and hormonal rages, Bridget was conceived. Although I didn’t know it for two more weeks, my life was forever changed lying there on that table with my hips up in the air.
And luckily, 15 months in to this whole parenting business, I feel like I’ve gotten a handle on being a mom. Wow, 15 months. If this were a paying job, I’d have been fired about a year ago. I guess that’s not really correct. I had a handle on being a mom to an infant within a few weeks. Then she turned into a toddler and that transition has taken me longer to acclimate to, but I think I’m finally happy with toddler-hood.
I wonder exactly how long I can get away with celebrating March 2 as a significant occasion. Will she think it’s weird if I call her when she’s away at college to congratulate her on the anniversary of her conception? No, surely not.

Yeah, toddler-hood is WAY harder than infant-hood I think.
The best is when she can use sentences and tells you “No way momma. You STOP IT!”
Gah!
Happy Conception day! (a couple days late…)
That is a momentous occasion. Good for you for keeping it special. I don’t remember the actual date of my little G (modern medicine was also a help); probably because it was such a weird day, including bringing my son with us to the clinic, having to make an excuse as to where dad was going, what he was doing, where mom was going… I should have a look back at my calendar!
